This collection was inspired by Ellen Wolpert's article about anti-bias work with younger students. Her article suggests that teachers should keep a collection of non-stereotypical photos of people doing regular things that can be referenced to stimulate class discussion or address biased language with young children.
The photos in this growing collection are organized into (Google Drive) folders inspired by categories mentioned by Ms. Wolpert: Race, Age, Physical Abilities, Gender Roles, Families/Sexual Orientation, Jobs, and Ethnicity. Each folder contains different photographs curated from various Creative Commons websites, including Unsplash, Pixabay, and Pexels. Currently there are 80 photographs in the collection. They have been assembled here for your convenience and represent many hours of searching, downloading, and editing.

Nas últimas décadas percebeu-se uma ampla cobertura por parte da mídia dos assuntos relacionados ao aquecimento global. Porém, apesar da grande veiculação de matérias a respeito do assunto, inúmeros estudos em vários países apontam que os alunos de diversos níveis de ensino e professores têm uma compreensão limitada sobre a natureza e as consequências do aquecimento global. Por outro lado, estudos também apontam uma deficiência no ensino e no aprendizado sobre a fotossíntese, uma reação bioquímica bastante complexa de extrema importância para a manutenção da vida em nosso planeta, que está diretamente relacionada ao sequestro de carbono e consequentemente a mitigação do aquecimento global. Nesse contexto, o viveiro de mudas educador da Escola Bosque, localizado na Ilha de Caratateua, distrito de Outeiro na cidade de Belém, cidade que segundo o IBGE tem o pior índice de arborização comparada a outras cidades brasileiras, torna-se um espaço privilegiado para trabalhar uma sequência didática sobre fotossíntese, sequestro de carbono e mitigação do aquecimento global, apoiada na habilidade de ciências (EF07CI13) da base nacional curricular comum. A sequência didática estrutura-se em cinco módulos, iniciando com a problematização no módulo 1; entendendo os fenômenos no módulo 2; o módulo 3 é destinado aos experimentos no viveiro educador; o módulo 4 trata da montagem de mapas conceituais e da avaliação; a forma de socialização é tratada no módulo 5, ultimo módulo da sequência didática.

The purpose of this resource is to observe when selected bird species first arrive at your study site, and to count the numbers until few or none of these birds are seen. Students select a common and easily identifiable bird species in their region and observe when the bird species first arrives. Students use binoculars or telescopes to scan a study site and count how many they see. They continue to observe every other day until few or none of the selected species can be seen.

This lesson is based on the results of a performance task in which we realized that students' understanding of area and perimeter was mostly procedural. Therefore the purpose of this re-engagement lesson was to address student misconceptions and deepen student understanding of area and perimeter. The standards addressed in this lesson involve finding perimeter and area of various shapes, finding the perimeter when given a fixed area, and using a formula in a practical context. Challenges for our students included decoding the language in the problem and proving their thinking. (7th Grade Math)
